Greetings,
We're running samba 3.0.21a with cups on debian to serve printing and
automatic driver download to XP clients.
I'm looking into setting up a Linux-HA printing system with heartbeat in
active/passive mode. Sorry, i'm new to this. From what I read, if a
failure is detected on one node the other will take over and startup
it's samba services.
My question is how do I keep the samba print queues,drivers, etc. synced
between the two machines?
Can I use NFS to store the samba installation and mount it on both machines?
Or use rsync?
what files/directories need to be kept in sync?
much appreciated,
Ryan
